In this respect, the Committee requests the Government to indicate whether the prohibition upon organizations of public servants from carrying out political activities or activities incompatible with the purposes of the State either within or outside the workplace, envisaged in section 88(1) of the Regulations, implies that organization of public officials who do not exercise authority in the name of the State are prohibited from using strike action to support their position in the search for solutions to problems posed by major social and economic policy trends which have a direct impact on their members and on workers in general, in particular as regards employment, social protection and the standard of living.

The Committee also observes that section 88(2) of the Regulations prohibits organizations of public servants from promoting, initiating or supporting strikes in public services the interruption of which would endanger the life, personal safety or health of citizens.
